Job description

Workshop Operative & Fitter | £28,700pa | 7am-4pm Mon-Fri

Are you: Practical, good with your hands and looking for a role where you can learn a proper skill?

ReQuire Consultancy is recruiting for a successful, award-winning family business looking to add a Workshop Operative & Fitter to their established team.

This is a varied, hands-on role split between working within the production workshop and heading out with the fitting team to install high-quality stone products in customers' homes and properties.

You certainly don't need to arrive as the finished article. We're looking for someone practical, reliable and comfortable with physical work who wants to learn, develop and become genuinely skilled at what they do.

What you'll be doing

When you're out with the fitting team, you'll help prepare and complete installations, handle materials, use tools and work alongside experienced fitters.

Back at the workshop, you'll get involved in the manufacturing side of the business, learning different skills and processes involved in producing and finishing the products before they leave for installation.

Your role will include:

• Travelling to customer sites and assisting with installations

• Loading and unloading products, tools and equipment

• Preparing areas ready for fitting

• Handling and fitting high-quality stone products

• Using a range of hand and power tools

• Working within the production workshop when not out fitting

• Learning different manufacturing and finishing processes

• Working carefully and professionally in customers' homes

• Developing your skills across both production and installation

Who are we looking for?

You may already have experience in manufacturing, workshop production, fitting, construction, landscaping, joinery, warehousing or another practical environment.

More importantly, you'll need to:

• Enjoy practical, physical work

• Be reliable and willing to get stuck in

• Take pride in doing a job properly

• Be comfortable using tools and learning new skills

• Work well as part of a small team

• Be polite and professional around customers

• Hold a full UK driving licence and have your own transport to get to and from work

What's on offer?

• Monday–Friday, 7am-4pm zero weekends.

• Company van for travelling to fitting jobs

• Full in-house training

• Opportunity to learn fitting and manufacturing skills

• Long-term development within an established local business

If you're someone who enjoys making things, fixing things or simply prefers being on your feet and working with your hands, this could be a really good opportunity to turn that practical ability into a long-term career.
